Well the long wait is almost over ! How about using this thread to post any info about the manufacture of our motors, where our cars currently are and shipping details.

I guess most of them should be coming over on the same ship.

Found out today. Car built and on way to German Port

Am I the only Week 25'er then ?

I might be on the same boat! See my entry on the 'Delivery Times' thread!

Dunc

When I say 'I' might be on the boat, I mean my new car might be!

LOL Do we know which boat yet ? Apparently you can track the ship online ( sad ) when we know which one it is.

No, dealer didn't say. Just said it's on the way from the factory & should be with him (the dealer) in early July!

Not sure if he has detail re the boat. I could ask when he gets back to work next Wednesday.

I'm on week 25.. I really hope mines on the there too..

My Scout arrived at Grimsby Docks at 06:15 this morning aboard the Maine Highway

Was told by the dealer yesterday afternoon that mine was on the waves. So I'm guessing it arrived in Grimsby at 06:15 this morning too !! I hope so, the wait has been agony but getting very excited now !!!

Had a call from the dealer to say ours has arrived!!

Just need to arrange collection sometime next week now

Cheers

Pickup next week !

Pickup next week !

Ordered my scout 23rd April and have not heard a thing, will contact the dealer today and see if they are still there !!

Just found out my build week has been pushed back to week 33 (16th August) car expected around 3rd Sept at dealers. They say this is due to adding the LED running lights and alloys!!? Still at least it will be a 60 plate.

My week 26 build (VRS 2.0T ordered 5th May) is now sitting on a boat waiting to be fully loaded then off it goes, ETA into garage back end of next week.

Still no idea where mine is.. Apparently it left the factory over 2 weeks ago

Dealer states it's cleared Port at Endon - which I am guessing means it's at sea somewhere.. No idea of the ship it's on, where it's going too or when it will arrive.

Had to call Skoda UK for more info.. Awaiting callback - just my luck it would be the only one that fell overboard..

Ahh well - at least I'd get a 60 plate :p

well at least it's not fallen overboard.. It should be in Grimsby by today.. so I should have it by the end of next week.

Hate to tell you this HotRod but the 60 plate comes in from September.

Gaz is your Scout a diesel ? I think this may be the reason for the delay. My Scout does not have the polished alloys but it does have the LED's.

Pickup confirmed as Friday 16th July. Insurance all sorted

Excellent comms by Steve at Rainworth

I know - but as my car has been "lost" for over 2 weeks - I was thinking they could upgrade me to a VRS free of charge on a 60 plate?... ahh well.. You can't blame me for trying.

If it was me mate you would have your VRS lol !

Ordered Scout 24th April - just got the call it will arrive at the garage tomorrow, pick up a week Saturday

Snap. Pick mine up week on Friday. Been sat in it today

Still waiting for a call saying it's in the dealers.

Knowing my luck they will call tomorrow when I'm out of town so won't get a chance to see it before it's been taken out of the shrinkwrap :(
